Verdict

DAL HORRISGLE showed an aptitude for hurdling in a race working out well at Exeter and seems sure to do better given his Flat ability, so he's fancied to make his second start in this sphere a winning one. Alexander James, a useful performer on the level, is an interesting recruit for the Fergal O'Brien team, with Percy's Word and L'Incorrigible also potential threats.
